Good luck, I’m looking forward to seeing how it works out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6/page/2#post-2293596 Thu, 01 Dec 2022 13:27:41 +0000 Staysfit 2293596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jussie, it sounds like you decided. &nbsp;I hope it works out for you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6/page/2#post-2293089 Mon, 28 Nov 2022 14:26:23 +0000 RobinF 2293089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favorite :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6/page/2#post-2292952 Sun, 27 Nov 2022 01:21:16 +0000 Jaime 2292952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is a good choice - I would have chosen it too . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6/page/2#post-2292943 Sat, 26 Nov 2022 23:26:50 +0000 Jenni NZ 2292943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab!

Yeah, number two is a real beauty. I adore it, but worry I just wouldn’t get a great deal of wear out of it due to its delicate nature.<br /> HOWEVER: I decided to go with number 1; I just think I’ll get a lot more wear out of it because it’s white rather than cream. Also all the little holes Will hopefully soften the brightness a bit against my skin.<br /> Thanks so much all. Pictured is a skirt an ordered to hopefully go with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292864 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 23:34:05 +0000 DonnaF 2292864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>jussie: Any chance your size will come back in stock? Or reviews that says it runs small? The size 10 will hit you lower in the neckline. . .</p> <p>FWIW, I think #2 looks more like you than the other two. #1 depends on how much out of your comfort zone you'd like to go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292858 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 21:57:30 +0000 jussie 2292858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone, wow, thank you SO MUCH for your thoughts. I do feel a bit more clear now.<br /> The actual broderie pattern on 3 just doesn’t appeal to me as much, it looks slightly cheap. and that very bright white looks too white for my colouring, which doesn’t cope so well with white. </p> <p>So…. It’s really between numbers 1 &amp; 2 now. </p> <p>- Number 1, more on trend with the geometric shapes, and with the cropped and slightly voluminous cut. Slightly less “me” because I am not usually much into geometric patterns and really boxy cuts. </p> <p>-number 2: very beautiful but harder to style and less trendy. Maybe more “me” because I like soft drapey fabrics. Only available in a size 10 which is one size above my usual…. But I think in this style it’d probably be ok… maybe….</p> <p>Ok, I am getting closer to a decision now. Thank you all so very much- you are so helpful and clarifying! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292854 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 21:32:25 +0000 Kate 2292854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #2 for you. If cream is a better choice for you, I would go for that. The blouse has a romantic vibe and that suits you. The V-neck is low, but if you can work with it, I wouldn't let that deter you. For me, it's definitely #1. I'm with LaPed, not a romantic bone in my body so I steer clear of lacy, puffy and delicate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292849 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 21:09:42 +0000 Suz 2292849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For myself I would choose #3. But if cream is better for you then perhaps #2 is a better option, especially since you do have a hint of boho in your style and moreover, it works in the Australian context. They are all very pretty!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292848 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 20:38:32 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2292848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one ecru woven summer top and one white linen one. I want to wear them all the time, so i might want to try the first top for myself. Sadly, I can’t find it on <a href="https://eu.frenchconnection.com/collections/womens-sale?page=2&#038;pf_pt_product_type=Tops&#038;pf_t_colour=base_colour_WHITE" rel="nofollow">https://eu.frenchconnection.co.....lour_WHITE</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292836 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 17:45:44 +0000 ophelia 2292836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sal brought up very useful questions to consider, as I think all our opinions can’t help but being based on our own preferences. That said, I love #3 :)<br /> It seems understated, delicate &amp; versatile-which may not be what you’re looking for! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292834 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 17:29:16 +0000 Sal 2292834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all lovely. I am drawn to 2 because I like the neckline and this style of blouse in summer. </p> <p>I would consider<br /> - white or cream - which flatters you and works with your closet<br /> - do you want long sleeves<br /> - length - I find tops that sit on the waistband really useful without needing to be tickled - the length of 1 is good for that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292831 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 17:15:00 +0000 Helena 2292831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all beautiful ... I'd say you won't go wrong with any, although 2 and 3 seem more your style to me (although I really love 1 as well!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292828 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 17:10:38 +0000 Bonnie 2292828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 or #3 are my choices. Love #2 but the low neckline wouldn't work for everyone. #3 is beautiful, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292827 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 17:00:51 +0000 doggeh lover 2292827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE # 2! So unique and beautiful......wish it came in my size </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292824 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 16:58:12 +0000 LaPed 2292824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'd choose #1 for myself. Clean lines, nice shape, emphasis is on the texture. #2 would feel too busy on me, and I don't have a romantic bone in my body. That said, I think it could look really lovely on you, and #1 might feel a bit too stark/boxy/overwhelming; I think you do better in garments that have a bit of delicacy. I'd try it and see if the neckline isn't too low! #3 doesn't really speak to me. It looks like it could be a very practical top, but I definitely prefer the more abstract broderie on the first two over the more literal floral. Hmm. Curious to see what you decide! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292821 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 16:41:05 +0000 Kathie 2292821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a tough choice! I like #2 for you, but #1 is a close second. The length of #3 looks potentially awkward; long enough to tuck, but not quite long enough to stay tucked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292810 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 14:52:27 +0000 Angie 2292810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 best!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292801 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 13:36:19 +0000 kkards 2292801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2 the riess pieces, it’s a true statement piece. My 2nd favorite is #1 but given your misgivings about the cropped nature of those I’d pass on it. The 3rd piece looks nice, bit not as good as the other 2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292797 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 12:58:08 +0000 Sisi 2292797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I should have checked your profile before commenting. Since you define your style as "romantic-ish"&nbsp; then #2 or #3 seem more right for you!&nbsp; # 1 is "my" style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292792 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 12:39:35 +0000 Anonymous 2292792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 the most, but agree the neckline could be too deep for comfort. It definitely seems the most special to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292788 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 12:18:44 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2292788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>"Get behind my shoulder Satan"<br />"It looks beautiful from behind, my dear"&nbsp;<br />lol</p> <p>In other words, I feel a strong temptation to get all three, and they aren't even for me. They are all different. The first would be great with crisp shorts in a strong color. The second would be good for around a fire on the beach. The third one is probably most flexible.&nbsp;How are you planning to wear this purchase/with what?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292786 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 11:48:58 +0000 Dee 2292786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Each top is pretty in its own special way, so I'd probably focus on the sort of look I'd likely wear the most often and then select the one that suits this vibe best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292783 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 10:24:15 +0000 Bijou 2292783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a major broderie anglais fan, I like them all too! I can vouch that there is something very cooling about wearing white broderie anglais in the height of our Australian summers.&nbsp;</p> <p>Of your selection, I have a slight preference for #2 because the romantic detailing is so pretty, and the open neckline would be nice and cool to wear. It is the perfect piece to wear out to dinner or to a summer party. I find boho really suits the Australian beachy summer lifestyle and embrace a bit of boho in summer for that reason. My only hesitation is whether your size is still in stock. I would pick you as an Australian size 6 or 8 (translating to US 2 or 4) and that top could be too much volume if you size up to the size 10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292782 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 09:13:52 +0000 Star (Lise) 2292782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3.&nbsp; I cannot wear such cropped tops, and not into peasant tops.&nbsp; You really need to consider your style and your colouring.&nbsp; Would be helpful to see them on you and then comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292780 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 08:36:01 +0000 Sisi 2292780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like # 1 - simple but unusual, defined, pure white&nbsp; (just my taste of course).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292779 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 08:09:53 +0000 slim cat 2292779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 ( and it's the only one I can pull off - lol ). The second is gorgeous but has certain limits in styling. The third one is sweet but too casual to my eye ( probably just me ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/choosing-between-three-broderie-anglais-tops%e2%80%a6#post-2292777 Fri, 25 Nov 2022 07:35:42 +0000 bella 2292777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1. It looks more contemporary to me with the geometric cut-outs and the voluminous shape. I also prefer crisp white to cream by a mile. But I am also not a fan of peasant blouses and the third one is giving me western vibes. Overall, I feel like these three blouses are very different from each other and you really should think about your overall style. </p>
